Doctor Bob and I are 48 00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:55.680 excited to get to started. Let's make this hour count. 49 00:02:56.280 --> 00:02:58.240 So first up, what I want to bring to your 50 00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:03.639 attention listeners is the overlooked cure for restless legs, and 51 00:03:03.639 --> 00:03:06.319 we're gonna put some calm in those legs today. For years, 52 00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:10.879 doctors have treated restless leg syndrome syndrome with drugs that, 53 00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:17.520 wait for it, turned patients into gamblers. But now experts 54 00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:21.759 confess we messed up the fix. It's a supplement that's 55 00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:24.479 hiding in plain sight. So I want to get into 56 00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:27.560 this with you. It's I want you to picture this. 57 00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:31.639 It's two am in your legs. They feel like they've 58 00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:36.080 appeared on Dancing with the Stars. That's restless legs syndrome. 59 00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:40.599 It affects one in ten people, mostly women, and for 60 00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:46.439 decades the go to treatment was a dopamine agonist like rapoanol. 61 00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:52.120 These drugs they boost dopamine. That's the brain's movement manager. 62 00:03:52.919 --> 00:03:59.000 But the twist here is dopamine also controls pleasure. Que 63 00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:05.439 these side effects like compulsive gambling, hypersexuality, even suicidal thoughts. 64 00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:08.319 I want you to take Joe Lee for instance. She 65 00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:13.080 was She's a mom's rights advocate. She spiraled into suicidal 66 00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:16.439 thoughts on these medications for it. Or there was an 67 00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:20.519 anonymous woman who sued who tried to suing the NIH 68 00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:24.959 the National Health Institute, after blowing her life savings on 69 00:04:25.279 --> 00:04:31.279 candy crush doctor Christy Anderson. She was a sleep neurologist. 70 00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:36.319 Amidst they're recalling patients the drugs they're just too risky. 71 00:04:37.519 --> 00:04:39.600 Now I want you, I want to enter iron here, 72 00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:44.120 this iron epiphany. That's the unsung hero. It turns out 73 00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:48.680 low iron disrupts dopamine's path to the brain even when 74 00:04:48.680 --> 00:04:53.639 you're not anemic. Studies show fifty percent of restless leg 75 00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:58.160 syndrome patients improved with iron supplements, and that's just as 76 00:04:58.279 --> 00:05:03.639 low as forty miligrams a day or also ivy iron infusions. 77 00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:08.720 The American Academy of Sleep Medicine now calls iron the 78 00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:12.519 first line of treatment. And this is why iron is 79 00:05:12.600 --> 00:05:17.120 so key. It's like a delivery truck for dopamine. If 80 00:05:17.120 --> 00:05:20.839 you don't have iron, the dopamine gets lost in transit. 81 00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:25.600 If you fix that iron, you fix the glitch. These 82 00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:30.360 researchers confirm this in twenty nineteen that iron eases restless 83 00:05:30.399 --> 00:05:36.000 leg syndrome even in non anemic patients. And why is 84 00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:40.439 dopamine the key? It's a neurotransmitter that's vital for muscle 85 00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:45.120 movement and low iron levels can lead to involuntary movements 86 00:05:45.519 --> 00:05:50.079 like restless leg. I want you to meet Emma, who 87 00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:54.959 is fifty eight. She battled restless leg syndrome for forty years. 88 00:05:55.160 --> 00:05:59.680 She had symptoms like itchy knees, sleepless nights, and failed medication. 89 00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:05.120 Then she tried ivy iron infusions. Three weeks later her 90 00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:10.199 symptoms completely vanished. That was one infusion and no relapse 91 00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:14.879 of symptoms. But here's the rub ivy iron infusions They 92 00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:18.199 could be costly, sometimes over one thousand dollars a treatment, 93 00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:23.240 and insurance rarely covers it, especially for restless leg syndrome. 94 00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:29.839 Professor Toby Richards, who as an iron expert, puts it bluntly, 95 00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:34.920 Why force patients into these risky pills when a fifteen 96 00:06:34.959 --> 00:06:39.560 minute IVY iron drip could cure them? Well, doctor Bob, 97 00:06:39.680 --> 00:06:43.560 I'll tell you why iron solves the problem. Why would 98 00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:47.920 anybody want to do that? Your reliance on prescriptions decrease, 99 00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:51.839 and big pharma doesn't keep cashing in on you. But 100 00:06:53.800 --> 00:06:57.600 if you're ready for it to tackle restless legs, this 101 00:06:57.639 --> 00:07:00.360 is a roadmap that I think listeners need to do. 102 00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:03.399 They need to demand a blood test. They need to 103 00:07:03.399 --> 00:07:07.160 ask their their general practitioner or healthcare provider for a 104 00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:13.560 ferretin test which measures iron stores. And that's the ideal level. 105 00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:18.199 It's the gold standard there. Above seventy five units per 106 00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:22.000 liter is what would be considered a standard to help 107 00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:25.399 cure or help with that restless legs. And then I 108 00:07:25.399 --> 00:07:28.560 also encourage listeners to pop a pill, but not the 109 00:07:28.600 --> 00:07:31.680 pill they're thinking of when medication that it's daily iron 110 00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:35.519 supplements of sixty five milligrams roughly, but also with a 111 00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:41.199 vitamin C supplement because vitamin C boosts absorption. And I 112 00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:45.920 also consider to start eating smarter, load up on lentils, spinach, 113 00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:50.439 and red meat. If they're not vegetarian vegans, they compare 114 00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:55.199 lentils with lemon for that extra absorption. And then if 115 00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:58.639 all this doesn't increase it and you still have restless legs, 116 00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:03.519 you need to push for iv iron infusions. You need 117 00:08:03.560 --> 00:08:07.519 to lobby that with your practitioner. Also, I consider say 118 00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:11.000 call your insurance company, check your insurance coverage, and if not, 119 00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:14.519 lobby them to say, hey, this is something that works, 120 00:08:14.759 --> 00:08:18.160 it'd be much much more affordable over a lifetime of 121 00:08:18.439 --> 00:08:21.360 medication management. I'm doctor Bob. 122 00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:26.160 Well, this is clinical nutrition one oh one. We were 123 00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:31.480 learning this twenty thirty years ago. That restless legs syndrome, 124 00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:33.519 which is where your legs, ladies and gentlemen, you try 125 00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:35.320 to sleep at night and your legs want are dance. 126 00:08:35.480 --> 00:08:38.639 They just keep twitching and dancing and twirling in the bed. 127 00:08:38.720 --> 00:08:41.720 And yet your dog tired and you can't let the 128 00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:45.759 legs won't calm down. That is your body telling you 129 00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:50.360 that something's out of balance. And since the medical profession 130 00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:54.440 in conventional medicine as almost like zero training and clinical nutrition, 131 00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:57.600 you can't expect them to know about these things. That's 132 00:08:57.639 --> 00:09:01.039 why you need to have different forms of healthcare providers 133 00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:06.840 in your repertoire of healthcare, like a chiropractor. This is 134 00:09:06.919 --> 00:09:11.559 basic information that chiropractors learn because they learn nutrition and 135 00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:15.759 they go on to become Board Certified in Nutrition, which 136 00:09:15.799 --> 00:09:18.759 is a three year additional program in addition to the 137 00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:23.080 eight years of college that are required by chiropractic physicians 138 00:09:23.080 --> 00:09:27.440 to become physicians. And so this is basic stuff. Now, 139 00:09:27.440 --> 00:09:30.159 there are other reasons for restless like syndrome. One, you 140 00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:32.960 can be dehydrated, so make sure you stand on top 141 00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:36.120 of your water. Sedentary lifestyle, if you're sitting all day long, 142 00:09:36.879 --> 00:09:38.519 you need to get up and move around because that 143 00:09:38.519 --> 00:09:42.840 can also exacerbate restless like syndrome. If you're using caffeine, 144 00:09:42.919 --> 00:09:48.120 it also destroys and makes worse the iron deficiency. It 145 00:09:48.159 --> 00:09:53.399 actually blunts your ability to absorb iron and it takes 146 00:09:53.440 --> 00:09:56.559 iron out of the body. So caffeine is a problem 147 00:09:56.600 --> 00:10:01.559 with people who have restless leg sin. And as doctor 148 00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:05.519 Brockman pointed out, if your blood test, your total iron 149 00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:08.320 and your iron binding capacity, they should all be done 150 00:10:08.320 --> 00:10:11.600 in your blood test. If they're low, then you supplement 151 00:10:12.519 --> 00:10:15.039 along with foods that are high and iron. And if 152 00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:19.679 that ferretin that he mentioned is below it's normal optimal range, 153 00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:22.679 which is around one hundred. That also, in addition to 154 00:10:22.759 --> 00:10:26.679 meaning you're having problems with iron, your be complex deficient. 155 00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:29.399 So you should be taking B complex vitamins right along 156 00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:34.480 with an iron supplement until your levels go up, your 157 00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:38.000 symptoms are reduced, you're sleeping better at night, and then 158 00:10:38.039 --> 00:10:40.200 you can get off the iron itself and just go 159 00:10:40.320 --> 00:10:44.399 to a multi that has the iron in it. All right, Doctor. 160 00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:47.679 Brockman, Yeah, I think that's a great great points there, 161 00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:50.039 I think, and Doctor Bob, but we're heading up to 162 00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:52.759 a break and when we come back, we'll get to 163 00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:54.320 that Health Alterna of the Week is going to tie 164 00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:58.000 into this, and listeners, you are listening to the Doctor 165 00:10:58.000 --> 00:10:59.639 Bob Martin Show. 166 00:11:01.039 --> 00:11:17.679 I catch. 167 00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:29.360 Yes up on your. 168 00:11:32.080 --> 00:11:35.679 Welcome back.

This week's game 189 00:13:01.480 --> 00:13:06.799 changing alternative is another It's not another stimulant like that. 190 00:13:07.000 --> 00:13:11.559 It's Sun Warriors Oasis liquid iron. It's a plant powered 191 00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:15.559 secret to real energy and it works from the inside out. 192 00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:19.759 Here's the truth. Nearly one in three women and one 193 00:13:19.799 --> 00:13:22.759 in five men are iron deficient and they don't even 194 00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:27.559 know it. The symptoms they include fatigue, brain fog, restless legs. 195 00:13:27.600 --> 00:13:31.279 Like we talked about all masked by just they think 196 00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:34.240 they're just busy. It's not the case here. In that 197 00:13:34.399 --> 00:13:38.320 daily coffee or the black tea, it blocks iron absorption 198 00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:43.279 by nearly sixty percent. We're caffeinating our way into exhaustion. 199 00:13:44.120 --> 00:13:48.639 Most iron supplements they don't really taste good. They cause constipation, 200 00:13:49.200 --> 00:13:52.879 they taste metallic in nature, and they're harsh on your gut. 201 00:13:53.360 --> 00:13:57.840 But sun Warriors Liquid Iron, it's a plant based revolution 202 00:13:58.279 --> 00:14:03.159 with fairir care iron. It's gentle and absorbable. They also 203 00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:05.159 get it's got vitamin C already in it and that 204 00:14:05.240 --> 00:14:09.080 helps to boost that uptake and there's no stomach wrecking. 205 00:14:09.879 --> 00:14:13.559 There's a flavor like mixed berries. It's just delicious. And 206 00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:17.559 as a natural medicine physician, I hate just band aating 207 00:14:17.799 --> 00:14:21.919 like energy drinks. They're robbing Peter to pay Paul. Real 208 00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:26.000 energy comes from nourishing your cells, and iron is the 209 00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:31.799 oxygen taxi your blood desperately needs. Sun Warrior's formula for this. 210 00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:36.159 It's genius. It's vegan friendly, no heme iron from animals. 211 00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:41.240 There's no iron overload risk. Your body absorbs only what 212 00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:43.960 it needs, and this is how I use it. I 213 00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:46.399 take it with a fresh squeeze juice in the morning 214 00:14:46.440 --> 00:14:50.480 because vitamin C absorbs that helps boost it, and I 215 00:14:50.559 --> 00:14:55.200 use that instead of coffee. You can find Sunwarrior Oasis 216 00:14:55.240 --> 00:14:58.799 Liquid Iron at Sunwarrior dot com and at finer health 217 00:14:58.799 --> 00:15:02.279 food stores like Natural Gris Gros who carry Sunwarriors full 218 00:15:02.320 --> 00:15:06.519 line of products.

So this week's energy experiment 222 00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:24.519 is swapping one coffee for this liquid Iron plus juice combo. 223 00:15:25.399 --> 00:15:28.279 Notice the steady vibrancy with it.

Doctor Bob. 226 00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:40.240 Excellent Health alternative of the Week, Doctor Brockman, thank you 227 00:15:40.320 --> 00:15:41.559 for that. I think a lot of people are going 228 00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:44.519 to benefit by that. It is available in health food 229 00:15:44.600 --> 00:15:49.039 stores nationwide, but look for it at natural grocery stores 230 00:15:49.039 --> 00:15:51.399 if you're lucky enough to have one near you, or 231 00:15:51.440 --> 00:15:54.720 you can hit their website to find a whole host 232 00:15:54.759 --> 00:16:00.000 of Sunwarrior products over at Naturalgrocers dot com, Naturalgrocers dot com. 233 00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:01.360 What else should we have, Doctor Brock. 234 00:16:01.679 --> 00:16:06.240 I think let's get right back into calling questions. Next up, 235 00:16:06.279 --> 00:16:08.840 we have Pat from North Iowa. 236 00:16:09.200 --> 00:16:12.200 Hello, thank you for taking my call. My name is 237 00:16:12.279 --> 00:16:15.919 Pat and I'm from Benton or If Iowa. Is it 238 00:16:16.039 --> 00:16:22.279 possible to get too much magnesium in a supplement? Thank you? 239 00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:25.720 And I ensure your show very much by now. 240 00:16:27.480 --> 00:16:31.440 Well, thank you Pat for your kind for the question, 241 00:16:31.559 --> 00:16:33.960 and I'm also glad to hear that you enjoy the show. 242 00:16:34.000 --> 00:16:37.799 We love hearing from listeners just like yourself. Let's talk 243 00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:40.840 about magnesium here for a second. It's one of my 244 00:16:41.080 --> 00:16:44.799 absolute favorite minerals in natural medicine. I use it a 245 00:16:44.840 --> 00:16:47.519 lot of times in my toolbox. Actually, it supports over 246 00:16:47.639 --> 00:16:51.960 three hundred enzymatic reactions in the body, everything from nerve 247 00:16:52.039 --> 00:16:57.039 conduction in muscle relaxation to energy production. It also helps 248 00:16:57.039 --> 00:17:00.960 with blood sugar regulation and of course sleep quality. I 249 00:17:00.960 --> 00:17:03.120 think we talked about that several times on here, Doctor Bob, 250 00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:06.279 and the question you ask here can you get too much? 251 00:17:06.799 --> 00:17:11.119 And the answer is yes, but with some context. Most 252 00:17:11.160 --> 00:17:16.839 people are deficient in magnesium, especially due to stressful lifestyles 253 00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:20.519 that burn through those magnesium reserves, so in most cases 254 00:17:20.720 --> 00:17:25.519 supplementation is not only safe, but it's necessary. And that said, 255 00:17:25.720 --> 00:17:29.839 too much magnesium, especially from supplements, can cause some problems. 256 00:17:30.039 --> 00:17:34.400 It's typical in the form of loose stools or diarrhea 257 00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:39.480 and nausea or abdominal cramping. And this is when you 258 00:17:39.559 --> 00:17:41.400 need to be cautious on it. If you have a 259 00:17:41.480 --> 00:17:45.799 kidney disease, you should. You should make sure to not 260 00:17:46.319 --> 00:17:50.640 supplement magnesium without the direct supervision of somebody that knows 261 00:17:50.680 --> 00:17:54.640 what they're doing, like a naturopathic physician, a chiropractor, or 262 00:17:54.680 --> 00:17:58.960 a holistic practitioner. You don't want too much if it's 263 00:17:59.000 --> 00:18:02.480 going to stress those dnees out. The sweet spot here 264 00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:06.000 is most people benefit from somewhere about two hundred to 265 00:18:06.079 --> 00:18:10.079 four hundred milligrams per day. It's ideal to split if 266 00:18:10.079 --> 00:18:13.200 in two doses if you can. I often recommend magnesium 267 00:18:13.240 --> 00:18:18.279 glycinate or magnesium mallee. Both are well tolerated and absorbable, 268 00:18:18.759 --> 00:18:22.960 especially for those dealing with anxiety, sleep issues, or muscle tension. 269 00:18:23.000 --> 00:18:27.400 Like we mentioned, I like brands like Essential Formulas, has 270 00:18:27.400 --> 00:18:29.559 a great one here in sun Warrior, which we just 271 00:18:29.640 --> 00:18:32.759 mentioned in the Health Alternative. They have high quality magnesium 272 00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:36.279 blends that are designed with bioavailability in mind. That's that 273 00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:39.599 uptake that your body needs, meaning that your body can 274 00:18:39.680 --> 00:18:43.920 actually use what you're taking in Look for those forms 275 00:18:43.960 --> 00:18:46.000 that are gentle, it's general in the stomach and pair 276 00:18:46.079 --> 00:18:49.839 it with some other cofactors that enhance that absorption rate. 277 00:18:50.119 --> 00:18:52.680 And doctor Bob, Yeah, I. 278 00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:54.799 Think the colors issue is from bent North, Iowa, my 279 00:18:54.880 --> 00:18:58.039 old stomping ground there the quad Cities in Iowa. It's 280 00:18:58.039 --> 00:19:01.720 where I grew up in Davin, Iowa. So that kind 281 00:19:01.759 --> 00:19:04.880 of brought back some memories. Yes, you don't have to 282 00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:10.640 worry typically about being overdosed on magnesium, since it's estimated 283 00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:15.279 that about seventy percent of all Americans have magnesium deficiency. 284 00:19:15.440 --> 00:19:20.319 Magnesium deficiency and that is that stems from the fact 285 00:19:20.440 --> 00:19:25.400 that due to the farming practices, due to the way 286 00:19:25.480 --> 00:19:30.039 that we treat the soil today, you don't have plants 287 00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:34.559 that are uptaking enough magnesium. A stock of broccoli or 288 00:19:34.880 --> 00:19:39.960 cauliflower or some other vegetable that was replete with magnesium 289 00:19:40.079 --> 00:19:43.880 maybe sixty years ago, when we had actual good fertilizer 290 00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:47.599 from coalmaneure and other things. Now we're using everything synthetic. 291 00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:51.640 You lose those nutrients when you start messing with the soil, 292 00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:55.160 and therefore the plants don't take up as much of 293 00:19:55.240 --> 00:19:57.519 the nutrient value, and then when we eat the plants, 294 00:19:57.559 --> 00:19:59.400 we don't get the nutrients we need. And that's how 295 00:19:59.559 --> 00:20:04.480 this soul thing starts rolling. Now, with respect to dosage, 296 00:20:05.319 --> 00:20:08.960 the upper limit in this depends on the person, their condition, 297 00:20:09.480 --> 00:20:13.039 and it should be advised by somebody who's learned in 298 00:20:13.440 --> 00:20:16.960 the nutrition area, and that would be anybody without an 299 00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:20.960 MD behind their name, uh, because they just basically don't 300 00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:23.519 get it. But magnesium, you can go up into the 301 00:20:23.599 --> 00:20:27.279 upper limit of a thousand milligrams of magnesium per day 302 00:20:27.480 --> 00:20:31.519 spread out. Most minerals are best taken at the front 303 00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:34.440 end of a meal, so take those and you can 304 00:20:34.480 --> 00:20:36.160 take it before you go to bed if you want. 305 00:20:36.200 --> 00:20:38.920 The magnesium glycinate help you sleep better if you got 306 00:20:39.000 --> 00:20:41.240 leg cramps or whatever. But there's all kinds of like 307 00:20:41.400 --> 00:20:44.880 six or seven different forms of magnesium that are cleaved, 308 00:20:45.079 --> 00:20:48.759 usually to some type of amino acid. You mentioned the glycinate. 309 00:20:48.839 --> 00:20:51.359 There's toau eight mal eate. There's all kinds of sit 310 00:20:51.519 --> 00:20:54.839 rate forms of magnesium. You find the one that's right 311 00:20:54.920 --> 00:20:57.279 for you, the dosage that is right for you. And 312 00:20:57.359 --> 00:21:00.400 if you can't figure it out for yourself, most will do. 313 00:21:01.240 --> 00:21:06.440 That's when you start consulting learned healthcare providers that actually 314 00:21:06.799 --> 00:21:12.359 have training and knowledge and information about nutrition, and those 315 00:21:12.480 --> 00:21:15.480 doctors are doctors of choice in the area of nutrition 316 00:21:15.640 --> 00:21:19.920 in addition to the mainstain stay of their profession. That 317 00:21:19.960 --> 00:21:27.640 would be chiropractic physicians, nature pathic physicians, homeopathic physicians. A 318 00:21:27.680 --> 00:21:34.519 lot of PhDs also learn clinical nutrition, and doctors of 319 00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:38.960 medicine and osteopathy who have actually extra training outside of 320 00:21:39.000 --> 00:21:43.160 their core training in functional medicine or integrative medicine. They're 321 00:21:43.160 --> 00:21:45.440 also equipped to handle these kinds of problems. 322 00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:48.880 Sorry, doctor Brockam Okay, Well, I think we're coming up 323 00:21:48.880 --> 00:21:51.079 on a break here, so what we'll do when we 324 00:21:51.200 --> 00:21:54.079 come back.

Yeah, 352 00:23:21.559 --> 00:23:28.240 like green pea. That's the initial for a substance called 353 00:23:28.640 --> 00:23:35.480 palmotoy lethanola meine palmotoilethanola mean or pea for short. Is 354 00:23:35.599 --> 00:23:41.160 what scientists have figured out is contained in certain foods 355 00:23:41.319 --> 00:23:47.799 in very minuscule or minute amounts, yet it has the 356 00:23:47.920 --> 00:23:50.799 ability to help us out with our health. Now, some 357 00:23:50.920 --> 00:23:57.599 of the foods that contain this magical, amazing therapeutic nutrient. 358 00:23:58.400 --> 00:24:00.680 You can find it in small amounts of egg yolks 359 00:24:00.720 --> 00:24:02.240 and other foods, but you got to eat a lot 360 00:24:02.279 --> 00:24:03.920 of it in order to get it.
